You will be supported by an apprentice whom you will mentor and develop professionally.
- Operation and administration of our Linux servers (Ubuntu), including on-premise services such as GitLab, SonarQube, and other tools in the Docker environment.
- Long-term planning and development of our hardware and server infrastructure; you decide what to procure, replace, or modify and when.
- Management and support of Windows, Linux, and macOS devices, from procurement to setup.
- Management of our network infrastructure, VPN configuration, and implementation of IT security policies.
- Administration of Azure AD, Exchange, Teams, SharePoint as well as device management and policies via Microsoft Intune (MDM/MAM).
